Item 8.01 Other Events





On August 25, 2021, the United States District Court for the Southern District
of Ohio (the "Court"), granted preliminary approval of the settlement of the
stockholder derivative action captioned Rudi v. Wexner, et al., Case No.
2:20-cv-3068. The complaint in the case, and related litigation and
books-and-records demands (together with the Rudi case, the "Settled Actions"),
alleged that certain current and former directors and officers of L Brands, Inc.
breached their fiduciary duties through asserted violations of law and failures
to monitor workplace conduct. The Settled Actions were resolved pursuant to a
Stipulation and Agreement of Settlement (the "Stipulation").



Pursuant to the Court's Order granting preliminary approval of the settlement,
the company is publishing the Notice of Pendency and Proposed Settlement of
Derivative Actions (the "Notice"), attached hereto as Exhibit 99.1. The Notice
and Stipulation are available for review on the company's investor relations
